Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
jimreilly43 Only the bad guys get killed in this farce Good guys and girls can be shot smashed kicked knifed crushed shot choked and cuffed but they all survive but bad guys bodies are spread everywhere Could have been OK if a little more realism existed C'mon please This is kids stuff
The Movie Diorama Granted, I was generally fatigued and knew I shouldn't have watched it but not to worry, I'm always on the case and attempted it again the next day. Was it worth it? No. However! Not nearly as bad as everyone is making it out to be. An undercover officer has his son taken hostage by a ruthless drug lord to which he must deliver a substantial amount of goods in order to release his son. The pure definition of a generic action thriller which substitutes any real thrills for above average cinematography. The latter does enhance the overall appeal to a degree, but if your plot is as thin as Jamie Foxx's serious voice (he literally whispered everything) then really you have nothing to differentiate yourself from other B-movie thrillers. The action wasn't over the top, mostly consisting of cumbersome fist fights and Monaghan high kicking Foxx in the head, which surprisingly I quite enjoyed. I liked the realism. It could've easily turned into a 'John Wick' clone, and yes there is a club shootout, but it settled for a more placid tone. That tone doesn't always work though, as the narrative is slower than an elderly woman realising she's just won the jackpot on a slot machine (hint: pretty damn slow). Nothing really happens. The first two acts were as predictable as anything, although the third act does contain a nice twist in a police car, but not enough to save the film. I loved Monaghan's sassiness, she wasn't taking anything from anyone. Her way or no way, and I would choose her way any day. Yet, again, her performance just wasn't enough. The conclusion was incredibly underwhelming and had the audacity to leave itself open for a sequel. Ha! Hilarious. Sleepless is just too generic for its own good. Not the longest, and certainly not the worst, ninety minutes put to film as I can say with confidence that I did enjoy certain aspects. But as for its entirety, it's as unmemorable as the dream you had when this film put you to sleep.
theforcegamer-50435 THEY SAID IT WAS GONNA BE AN EASY GRAB !WELL , IT AIN'T NO EASY GRAB , THEY GOT T !
Andres-Camara An action movie, to see how it is, well look, I do not know if it's worth saying. Those moments when you know that the director is going to spoil it even more, and it happens, that's this movie. At least he's letting you discover things on the fly. While giving that role to the mother in the end, it's like enough.It is not shot like the French one, but it is badly shot. It does not make you dizzy, but it does not tell you anything.The casting is better, without being a marvel. Here the owner of the disco, Dermot, at least it does not disgust you. The dealer is scary. Otherwise it's worth it.Photography is beautiful, you can not say no. AccompanyThe address is that it is bad. Do not bore, there is action, although it is not well taken. He does not know how to put the camera.I would not recommend it
